For this assignment you will write a paper applying theory to a particular crime. You will choose a major field of criminology (Classical, Biological, Psychological or Sociological) that explains the causation of the following crimes: 1) any crime selected from the Uniform Crime Reports, National Incident Based Reporting System or National Crime Victimization Survey; 2) any white collar crime; 3) any environmental crime. Your paper should have five sections: an introduction, conclusion and three substantive sections. In each substantive section, compare and contrast all the other fields, explaining why they are not as significant a cause for your chosen crime. Paper should be a minimum of eight pages and have at least eight references.
